Here is a summary of what is going on with online gambling in the United States.
1) Prior to the passing of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006, eleven states had laws on the books that specifically ban all forms of online gambling. These states are: IL, IN, LA, MI, NJ, NV, NY, OR, SD, WA, WI. Online gambling continues to be considered illegal in these states.
2) The Act did nothing to alter, curtail, or extend state laws regarding online gambling. Thus, it did not make online gambling illegal in all states.
3) The Act places restrictions on the financial transactions that occur in connection with online gambling; it restricts electronic fund transfers and the use of credit cards in connection with such wagering. This means that players can no longer make wagers, or collect winnings using electronic fund transfers, credit or debit cards, or some other online payment systems.
In response to the Act, online gambling sites have done one of three things with respect to US-based real-money players:
1) Continue to accept US-based real-money players from all states
2) Accept US-based real-money players from states other than the states in which online gambling is specifically outlawed (meaning no players from the states listed above)
3) Closed their site to all US-based real-money players
Here is a list of all gaming sites that continue to accept US-based real-money players from all states:

These lists are updated daily as gaming sites establish and publish their policy with respect to US-based real-money players.
Best of luck!

Well whether online gambling in the U.S. is legal or not is a matter of debate although some states have specific statutes against it. The bottom line though is that there are millions of Americans playing online poker every day and the best the government has been able to do is make it more difficult to deposit but many sites take U.S. players and allow for deposit options for everyone. The reason why lotteries are legal is simply because the government gets its cut of the action as they do with land based gambling but with online gambling they don't and that's why they want to put a stop to it if they can. So far they can't. King Cobra Poker

You must of read something wrong. Gambling of any type has been illegal on the web in the USA before Bush ever took office.
To go onto these over seas gambling sites you do take a risk of still having charges pressed against you. Many of those over seas operations have been shut down by the FBI and CIA cause they come into the USA.

You can still play at the website below because you actually just use points and no money is used.
